World War II Memorial draws varied views on meaning and value
National memorial honoring WWII veterans draws praise and ambivalence from veterans like Bryant who say the tribute is late and not owed, while former Sen. Bob Dole notes the generation did its duty and built a strong democracy. The project, funded mainly by private gifts with federal support, began in 2001 and aims to teach future generations the cost of freedom.
